As Thai consumers become increasingly selective about discretionary spending, preventive vehicle maintenance continues to be a spending priority. Responding to this trend, Krungthai Card Public Company Limited (KTC) has partnered with Bangchak Corporation Plc and leading automotive service provider B-Quik to expand benefits for motorists seeking to maintain vehicle performance while reducing long-term ownership costs.
Under the collaboration, KTC credit cardmembers who purchase Bangchak FURiO engine oil change services at any B-Quik branch nationwide will receive five times KTC FOREVER reward points. The promotion is valid from July 1 through December 31, 2026.
Mr. Suwat Tepprechasakul, Head of Credit Card Marketing Division at KTC, said, "Vehicle maintenance remains an essential household expense, but consumers today are placing greater emphasis on maximizing value from every purchase. They are spending more cautiously while making more deliberate decisions about expenses that help prevent larger costs in the future. Routine vehicle maintenance is no longer viewed simply as an operating expense—it has become an investment in vehicle reliability, safety, and a lower total cost of ownership."
According to KTC's transaction data, while average spending per service visit has remained relatively stable, the frequency of visits has increased by approximately 4%, suggesting that motorists are increasingly opting for routine maintenance—such as engine oil changes—instead of delaying service until more costly repairs become necessary.
Demand is expected to remain strong during the second half of the year as families prepare for school breaks and year-end holidays, when long-distance travel typically increases. The campaign is available at more than 242 B-Quik service centers nationwide, giving motorists convenient access to trusted automotive services while allowing them to earn enhanced KTC FOREVER reward points.
Ms. Busararat Assaratanakul, Chief Operating Officer of B-Quik Co., Ltd., said, "This collaboration reinforces our commitment to delivering reliable automotive services while creating greater value for customers. Today's motorists expect convenience, trusted service, and meaningful value every time they visit a service center. By partnering with KTC and Bangchak, we are making high-quality engine maintenance more accessible while rewarding customers for taking proactive care of their vehicles."
Mr. Kanate Visarutpong, Senior Vice President of Lubricants Business at Bangchak Corporation Plc, said, "Bangchak FURiO engine oil is engineered to protect engines and extend their service life across a wide range of vehicle types. Engine oil is one of the simplest yet most effective investments motorists can make to maintain engine performance and reduce long-term maintenance costs. Through this collaboration, customers can enjoy premium-quality engine oil together with meaningful rewards from KTC cardmembers."
